Calf Implants - Calf Augmentation with Implants

What Are the Different Types of Calf Implants?

Calf implants that are used for Calf Augmentation/ Enlargement are made of solid, rubberized silicone materials that have the consistency and firmness of muscle. They do come in a variety of sizes, shapes, contours, and surface textures. Unlike silicone breast implants, calf implants are solid and don’t leak. The desired shape and size used depends on your existing form, goals, and physical limitations. Obviously, only implants that can safely fit in your legs can be used. The trend is to use longer implants that continue from 2 inches below the knee to 3-4 inches above the ankles. Older implants were usually shorter and made the legs look like “drum sticks” with lack of fullness in the lower leg. Older implants were also harder and did not have an anatomic shape. Today’s implants are softer, longer, and have an anatomic shape, unlike the cigar-shaped older implants.

Usually, two implants are used in each leg, in order to match the anatomic shape of the Gastorcnemius muscle which has two bellies. If one belly is much less developed than the other, then different size implants would be used to correct this asymmetry.
